chap 14 facing the past

"Oh now you don't not until you answer my questions." she snarls as she reaches for my hood but silena smacks her hand " Is this how you get off we brought him down here so that way he can get used to people." I glance at her with a small smile as trey raises a eyebrow "Little girl Let me see his face." tamy snarls as I step back shaking as silena shakes her head " Then what is his name?" I swallow and take as deep breath " Z-Z-Zak johns-" I start but then I see the one person I didn't want showing up " Hey Zachary I see you found your mother." Scott says while holding a brief case as my blood runs cold as my mother smiles " Its about time you came back home son." I squeeze silena hand in panick but slowly let go " But -" she cuts me off " No buts mister now to the car you have a up coming turnament." silena and trey looks at me as I tremble ' Son calm down and remember who you are, You are a child of zeus you bow TO NO ONE.' I stop trembling as I hear my fathers words "Your right." as silena and trey looks at me concerned as my mother grins " Good now-" I cut her off " Not you dad just reminded me THAT A SON OF ZEUS DON'T BOW TO ANYONE!!!" I scream as a bolt of lightning strikes the tarmac my hood falls as I stare up at her.

Everyone in the airport starts screaming and running as I stare her " Mother i am not your tool for more fame in fact today is the day I show the world who you are!" I turn to the camera crew that was reporting the strom " Hey!" I run over as mother goes pale and silena and trey smile " What do you want kid?" the reporter as the camera keeps rolling " Is this live?" I ask as she nods turning to the camera " My name is Zachary Bradley son of Tamy Bradley and today I'll expose a dark secret." I turn my back to the camera and start to pull my shirt up as she screams but is to late to stop me " This is her secret." I say at the camera " Oh my god how could this be?" the reporter asks before giving a report on the my back as I lower my shirt as I march back towards my mother " And I'm taking back all the prize money you kept." I turn look at my friends " Lets go we still have a beast to hunt." I say slinging my bag on my shoulder as they smile and we walk out " How much prize money did she take?" Trey as ask we are waiting on a cab, I shrug " i say nearly two million if you don't count the junior turnament." They stare at me " 2 million?!" Silena sqeaks as the cab pulls up and we climb in.

"Where to kids?" the driver asks and i just tell him my old address " Ok then." he says as we drive off " Hey driver can you tell me if there has been any strange activity up near blue ridge?" Trey asks as silena places her hand on mine " Yea there has been a lot of theft it's strange ranging anything from jewelry to cars. The people round there say it is some kind of monster but no one believes it but the police can't find any of it the other day ten highschoolers were found torn to pieces." The driver explains as we travel till we reach my old address" Well that will be $150." I hand him 200 " Sir I don't have change." he say as I shake my head " The extra 50 is for the information and can you wait a bit and take us through Dallas first?" the driver nods as we get out and walk to the front door " Do you have a key?" silena asks as I shake my head " Just watch you will see." I push the door bell " Who is it?" a voice comes through the speaker " Miss Jackie I'm back." the moment I finish my sentence the door flys open and a lady hugs me " Oh young sir it's good to see you again!"

I pat her back" Its good to see you miss Jackie but I need the card that mother put all my prize money on." I say as she stands up " Young sir that card doesn't have money on it anymore." I glare at her " Explain." she laughs " I transfered the money on to your card this morning all 2 million plus I saw the news and I transfered the 10 million from your mothers account to yours." I nod and hug her " Thank you miss Jackie what are you going to do now." she just shrugs " Now get out of here." I nod and turn back to silena and trey who are dumbfounded.
